"Sever ties?"
Those words plunged Tang San into utter despair. Looking at the woman before him, so beautiful she defied description, his heart ached unbearably.
He did not understand why he was so unwelcome.
Did even the person who had given birth to him hate him this much?
She wanted to sever ties with him over a man?
Anyone would probably find such a thing unbearable, and Tang San was no exception. Tears seemed about to spill from his eyes.
He despaired. He did not understand why his life had been so miserable. Was this Heaven's punishment for him?
He had only just found the most important person in his life, filled with hope, and now what was he supposed to do? Were they simply going to sever ties so casually?
"Tang San, didn't you hear me? I order you to kneel and call me Dad." Xu Ran could barely keep from laughing, but he feared breaking character and exposing himself. This was not a good time to laugh. At the very least, he had to wait until Tang San knelt and called him Dad before revealing himself.
Then he would deliver the final, fatal blow to Tang San.
"You!"
Hearing Xu Ran's arrogant tone, Tang San felt stifled with resentment.
Had Xu Ran spoken a little more politely, he might have acknowledged this so-called stepfather. But the man's tone and manner were utterly unbearable.
"Dad."
Tang San wanted to curse the man before him, but he did not dare.
He had nearly caused trouble just now by offering a single casual objection. If he really dared to curse him, his relationship with his mother would truly become irreconcilable.
Tang San knelt on the ground and called out, choked with resentment, his eyes fixed on Xu Ran with hatred.
